Who petitioned the Service and what did they request?
A3: On January 25, 2006, we received a petition requesting that we list the gopher tortoise in the eastern portion of its range as threatened under the Act. The petition was submitted by Mr. Brett Paben, of Wildlaw, on behalf of Save Our Big Scrub, Inc. and Wild South, and included supporting information regarding the potential causes of decline for the gopher tortoise in the eastern United States. In September 2006, we received a 60-day notice of intent to sue from Save Our Big Scrub, Inc. and Wild South for failing to make a timely90-day finding. On February 21, 2007, we sent a letter to the plaintiffs informingthem that funding had become available to make the petition finding during fiscalyear 2007.
